Latest David Brock Meme: Bernie Sanders Supporters Support Trump

[amborin]

---Sources


This is a mean-spirited attack on hard-working people who have seen their wages steadily decline and their jobs disappear.

1. Just heard Steve Kornacki pump that theme on MSNBC

[NorthCarolina]

13. Fabricated "problem" that will require

switching to all "closed primaries" for the Democratic Party to prevent. If Bernie doesn't make it, the party will leave no stone unturned to prevent another grassroots candidate from EVER challenging the establishment again. Closed primaries and voter registration snafu's have proved themselves as an effective firewall. They will become SOP.

2. Trump supporters support Sanders. Sanders supporters support Trump.

Democrats support Hillary.

16. The NY primary. And what a great primary it was! Bernie vanquished.

[frylock]

17. Was there like a cap and gown ceremony at Brock U?

[YouDig]

18. Brock U? Ha! There was a big celebration in America. The voice of the people.

[frylock]

23. I must have missed that.

When was this?

[YouDig]

24. On earth. Where Hillary is ahead by 280+ delegates and 3M+ votes. Welcome.

[frylock]

25. I think she's ahead in the number of federal agents currently investigating her as well.

[840high]

26. Yes she is. Boom!!!!

[CoffeeCat]

29.

Well played, my friend!

[dchill]

30. You know, I've heard that!

Wonder what's up with that?

[Andy823]

65. Just curious

Do you accuse all the "new" Bernie posters of being trolls also?

[frylock]

66. No, I don't.

Only the extremely aggressive posters who have joined between mid-March to mid-April and use many of the same talking points. It's patently obvious why they are here.

[liberalnarb]

27. ...

[Sheepshank]

49. I suggest you read the TOS, and then delete this call out.

[felix_numinous]

3. Endless lame memes

to wear down the enthusiasm, because they have NO PLATFORM to impress us with.

[TCJ70]

4. Yeah, didn't take long for there to be 20 threads about it, right?

It was also one of those hypothetical polls Hillary folks always discount so I don't know why they're putting stock in this one. If it comes down to Hillary/Trump, WV will choose Trump. Bernie really has no bearing on the poll results at all.

[sadoldgirl]

5. That makes a lot of sense, if they

think that their choice is HRC/Trump.
As far as I heard, they hate HRC in WV.

That is one reason for many in the South as well
to vote Trump, because they have been told
that HRC is already the nominee.

[JI7]

15. in 2012 about 40 percent of wv dem primary voters voted for someone in prison

Over Obama.

[fleabiscuit]

35. I doubt they voted that way because Obama was not progressive enough.

I've seen posts here in the gdp stating the poster wouldn't vote for HRC in the general because she isn't progressive. What ever the heck that is supposed accomplish. Perhaps birds of a feather, but how many here really want to roost with them?

[RufusTFirefly]

7. Perhaps Correct the Record and Blue Nation Review should come clean

And rebrand themselves, changing their name to Pravda.

[nadinbrzezinski]

10. Ok what did Pravda do to you?

they were never, ever this transparent.

[RufusTFirefly]

12. Hahaha! Good point!

I stand corrected.

Eezveneetyeh.

[silvershadow]

51. +1. Add MSNBC to that list. nt

[RufusTFirefly]

53. Totally. I've never put my faith in the corporate media

It surprises me how naive some people are.

Some people love Fox. Others root for MSNBC. It's absurd.

Like cheering on the San Diego Chicken when he battles the Phillie Phanatic, completely overlooking the fact that the real game is being played on the field.

[silvershadow]

54. Poignant and apropos description of the situation. *edited

On edit: Largely due to the Clinton Administration- letting go of all the media oversight and the ownership rules which allowed us to become a nation of 3 or 4 media conglomerations.

[RufusTFirefly]

67. Amazing to think that Ben Bagdikian warned about media consolidation ...

... back in the early 1980s. I believe the total that alarmed him was 21.

Little did he realize.

[nadinbrzezinski]

64. Hold it right there

the San Diego Chicken is a local hero!



That said, it is ridiculous. BNR = Breitbart and in the field of soft propaganda, Fox = MSNBC and CNN.

That said my local fox station from time to time does very competent work. There are times they don't... I can judge, when you are at the same story side by side...

[dana_b]

8. exactly which BS supporters? I know of none

DB is such an ass. Whatever Hillary is paying him is 110% too much.

[Buns_of_Fire]

43. He's probably in line to be Chief of Staff.

Or perhaps Press Secretary. He needs to be in a position where his unique... uh... talents can be put to good use -- and since "Applicant must be a lying sleazy asscarrot" doesn't appear on many lists of job requirements, perhaps he would be best suited to follow in Rahm Emanuel's footsteps and continue his proud tradition.

[EndElectoral]

9. It's the face saving crap Brock always done. My guess is this Brock memo was finished last week.

[Broward]

11. Hillary supporters are trying to deflect from their right-wing ways.

They're in bed with large Bush donors FFS.

[Sheepshank]

50. your just upset that Bernie's ploy to woo Republicans shows what hypocrites BS'ers can be nt

[egalitegirl]

57. No hypocrisy as voters (victims) are different from donors (perpetrators) n/t

[Sheepshank]

58. donors can chose to contribute or not...how are voters victims when they can chose to vote or not?

[egalitegirl]

59. Voters have been manipulated with lies while donors are the manipulators. n/t

[Sheepshank]

60. You go with that linear thinking....that's fine, dear

[LWolf]

19. He's wrong.

I do not support Trump.

He seems to be pretty unreliable.

[silvershadow]

20. Yeah I have seen it here, even. Then again, I hear Brock has operatives here. nt

[Sparkly]

22. How can I apply?

[pmorlan1]

31. Why Should They Hire You

You do it for free. They like free stuff.

[colsohlibgal]

21. Complete Nonsense

I know more than a few other Bernie supporters and none of us would ever vote for this childish man.

I just hope the dumbing down of the USA has not reached critical mass.

[VulgarPoet]

42. Even that moron Geraldo gets that.

[PufPuf23]

28. One is delusional or dishonest to claim Sanders supporters support Trump.

Typical.

Shameless.

[dubyadiprecession]

32. That sound about right....

Both BS and train wreck trump will lose to hillary. Mark my words.

[jillan]

33. When I was on Twitter earlier there were so many people laughing at Kornacki for

saying this.

Fools!!

[Jester Messiah]

34. I see it around here all the time. Very Bushian.

"If you're not with us you're against us." How the times have changed this place. (And not for the better.)

[fleabiscuit]

36. Umm, you've left an empty field under "---Sources"

Any plan on adding them?

[Vote2016]

37. Obviously he's full of shit, but if he doesn't quit that whining it may become self-fulfilling

[Demsrule86]

38. Bernie voter said this in exit polls interviews.

Operation chaos. This is why we like closed primaries. CNN said the same thing.

[oberliner]

39. That's not what the meme was

It was that about 30 percent of those who voted for Bernie in the WV primary said they would vote for Trump in the general.

Since it was an open primary, some Trump Republicans voted in the Democratic primary (since theirs was meaningless) and voted for Sanders to stick it to Hillary, but still plan to vote for Trump.

[boston bean]

40. I'm pretty sure it is not a meme. It's happens to be the truth...

for whatever it's worth to ya.

[myrna minx]

44. More "Brocking the record" and MSNBC faithfully colludes and catapults

the propaganda.

Ridiculous.

[mhatrw]

45. They are only Trump supporters if Clinton get the nomination. Otherwise, they are Sanders supporters

and Democratic voters.

[Xyzse]

46. Push them enough, and they might just.

This is ridiculous.

[thesquanderer]

47. Yes, some Sanders supporters (esp. among independents) would vote for Trump over Hillary.

This is one reason Hillary would have a tougher time beating Trump than Sanders would.

Is this really the best argument for Brock to be pushing?

[Sheepshank]

48. it's not a meme, it is the reality of the last exit polls

...at least you seem to be admitting that you don't like the direction this election is going.

[nadinbrzezinski]

61. Again, this was a semi open primary

most of those voters are DEMOCRATS. They include the 15 percent of HRC voters who are voting Trump in November.

[Sheepshank]

62. OH it's you following me around again

Zika virus is carried by mosquitoes

[nadinbrzezinski]

63. Nope and at least be more precise

two very specific species of mosquitos.

[WhiteTara]

52. It's the same ole White Man is better than

woman or black man. Only WHITE MAN can rule. I have no doubt that Sanders got help from other white men who fear being governed by women.

[Orsino]

55. Therefore they don't.

That was easy.

[egalitegirl]

56. Hillary Clinton DONORS support Bush

Guess we should start pointing out the obvious. Hillary DONORS are Bush donors.
